Zhi’er suddenly widened her dark eyes.
"Star Lord Yuan Qing... I knew he had issues!"
As she spoke, she suddenly realized, "Oh no, Brother Fu Ce, since this wooden doll can hear Mu Xi’s wishes, it indicates that Star Lord Yuan Qing’s mana is attached to it."
"We’re having this open conversation now; he must have heard us." freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
Feng Fuce shook his head, "He can’t hear it. As soon as I got my hands on this wooden doll, I severed its connection with Yuan Qing."
Zhi’er breathed a sigh of relief, "Good thing you’re here."
Otherwise, she wouldn’t know how to deal with this deity harboring malice!
Feng Fuce’s cold eyes darkened slightly, "I even suspect that Yuan Qing’s mana failed and backfired, leading to Mu Xi’s death."
"This might be because Mu Xi wished on Star Lord Yuan Qing to eliminate the enemy, and that enemy was you."
Zhi’er fell silent.
After a moment, she said, "It must be."
Feng Fuce’s expression grew even more severe.
"Your trials in the mortal world, someone at Star Lord Yuan Qing’s level couldn’t possibly be unaware."
"And if he knew it was you and still accepted Mu Xi’s wish, then this person..."
When Feng Fuce spoke to this point, his gaze turned extremely cold.
Star Lord Yuan Qing wants to eliminate Zhi’er.
Zhi’er murmured in realization, "So that’s why that night, when I helped Xiao Li block the Heavenly Tribulation, the Heavenly Thunder struck me too!"
Feng Fuce froze.
He immediately looked at Zhi’er, "You blocked the Heavenly Tribulation for Xiao Li?!"
Zhi’er blinked her round eyes, noticing the sudden tint of crimson in his eyes.
"I... I didn’t tell you?" She seemed to have indeed forgotten to explain why she fainted.
Feng Fuce furrowed his brows, "I thought you reached the day of your coming of age, intending to break through your cultivation threshold, but got accidentally struck by the Heavenly Thunder, and that Xiao Li’s tribulation was just coincidence."
"Zhi’er," he said with a cold laugh, "you really treat Xiao Li well, being willing to block a Heavenly Tribulation for it."
Zhi’er felt a strong sense of jealousy.
She cleared her throat, "Xiao Li was very weak at that time..."
"Weak?" Feng Fuce raised an eyebrow.
Zhi’er continued explaining, feeling pressured, "Moreover, it gave me many fruits..."
"Weak yet picked fruits for you?" Feng Fuce laughed even colder!
Zhi’er: ...
She suddenly realized, what’s going on, this man is actually interrogating her!
Zhi’er immediately wanted to get up and argue.
"Brother Fu Ce, what’s going on with you..."
However, as soon as she lifted herself, he pulled her back down.
Feng Fuce looked at her with cold eyes, "Are you planning to leave me for Xiao Li?"
Zhi’er was at a loss, "Aren’t you being unreasonable! I just wanted to stand up, and now it’s turned into leaving you?"
"Would you leave?"
"No!"
After she answered, she saw a glimmer like stars in Feng Fuce’s eyes, making her cheeks suddenly red.
The young girl widened her watery eyes, "Are you really angry, or are you pretending to be angry to get answers from me?!"
Feng Fuce laughed, "Whatever you say, that’s what it is; with those words, I’m no longer angry."
After speaking, he held her wrist tightly, "But next time, you’re not allowed to shield others from Heavenly Thunder."
Zhi’er huffed jokingly, "Not even for you?"
"No," Feng Fuce answered decisively, his tone calm, "If I were to die, I wouldn’t want you to witness that scene."
Zhi’er was taken aback.
She stared at him intently.
The two looked at each other silently, and Zhi’er inexplicably felt Feng Fuce wasn’t joking.
She snapped back to reality, "You won’t die!"
